Some Kind Words

“Gaining that extra edge”

“Astrid has helped me gain the extra edge in both my performance as an athlete and my highly demanding job as a surgeon. She always provided a different perspective of situations that would bring the pressure and anxiety that can be overwhelming to being completely in control.

We worked with modalities that targeted a holistic approach in performance to hack into my super power. Astrid provided a new way to recreate a new inner narrative to gain confidence and get me out of my moments in a frump.

The biggest change was to overcome my fears and connect better with my emotions to be prepared for everything and take the win.”

“Relationship Saver”

“I originally reached out to Astrid as I felt very drawn to her main motto “be the CEO of your life”. Although I am a professional athlete, I struggled with imposter syndrome, maladaptive habits, and a constant voice in my head of self-doubt. As a performance coach she has shown me how to release and replace unhealthy habits and shift my mindset and confidence completely. Along with my self-doubts, I also found trouble accepting love, and pushed away relationships. We did both individually and couples sessions with my partner, and it shifted and grew our relationship.

My mental game has elevated beyond my own expectations, and I keep reaching milestones in my athletic career due to the mental fitness and mindset learned and practiced with Astrid. 

Recommend any high-achiever, athlete or entrepreneurial, to work with Astrid if they want take control and curate the life they are striving for.

“Blew my Mind!”

“I have always been healthy and exposed to lots of corporate wellness, but I have never experienced such an immersive and life changing experience than the Breathing workshop we did.. 

The soundscape combined with the intense breathing blew my mind!

I had done the boring breathing, but this was a total different experience of emotional and physical release. The science behind it was also fascinating and perspective shifting.”

“Weight off my shoulders”

“I was feeling stress, distracted, and overwhelmed with uncertainty. After just one session with Astrid, I felt such a weight off my shoulders, and finally the brain fog was gone.

A few sessions later, my mental focus has improved, my mood is way better, and I am able to push myself way further in my workouts. Her approach is like no one else in this field, and the unique mind-body approach always offers something new to work with.

It truly is “therapy reinvented”!”

“Finally stepped into my power”

“Astrid was a game changer. I held so many inner doubts and fears I hid behind. I never felt enough, and that stood into attaining that extra promotion.

After a few exercises and work I did in session with Astrid, I finally  stepped into my power and stood my ground to get what i wanted…not what was expected of me.

I had gone to therapy before, but this was different. We used breathing, movement, and talk therapy to finally instil long-term change.”

“Happy Mother”

“As a mother, our children are our number one priority. I am so grateful to have come across Astrid from a referral of another teen mother. Do not know what kind of magic she performed, but I saw my girl again. Astrid is damn good at what she does!  For 8 months + my daughter had a therapist in Canada, and nothing made her like she is after working with AstridI’m sure there will be some bumps, but she finally seems ok. The sunlight was breaking through the clouds. I have seen her self-esteem go up, she has been motivated to start working out and go back to school. She has decided that she’s going to come off all her social media, for her own well-being. Which I think may be a wise choice for her. The consistent check-ins and message support Astrid provides helped the whole family go over a big hurdle and challenge. Again, thank you Astrid for everything you do! I might be able to start breathing a bit better from now on.”

“Yes to Sleep!”

“Bringing on Tri Peaks Performance has been a boost in our team morale. The feedback from individual employees was positive and each was eager to continue implementing.  

We learned things that impacted our energy and sleep that go blind sighted. Astrid provided real time tools and made things easy to add into our daily lifestyle to impact our work productivity  

Our team had a 20% boost in sales after completing the Sleep program, and less conflict in office was experienced! Who would have known.”

“She can do everything.”

Astrid is a great Yoga teacher and counsellor. Powerful, challenging, relaxing – she can do everything. She offers the perfect workout for “de-stiffifying” your body and your mind, and she eases any anxiety and stress mentally too. She makes you believe in your strength and works with you on your weaknesses. Excellent!

Teacher

I met Astrid during our honeymoon in Indonesia, I feel so lucky to had the chance to meet her. She’s an extraordinary teacher as well a person with shining energy. I have tried many yoga classes in my life but It’s with Astrid that I felt more in harmony, at the end of each lesson I alway felt in perfect balance with my body, strong and powerful. I’ve never had so much pleasure in practicing, I never wanted to stop! If I could I would take her with me everywhere to practice whenever I can! We really enjoyed a week with her, if you have the opportunity do not miss a class with Astrid, It’s really worth it!

In tune with where you are!

I did a yoga class with Astrid. I am a Boho beautiful YouTube viewer yoga student. I must say I wasn’t prepared for her virtual yoga class. It was literally like having a personal trainer. She is excellent! I truly appreciated her cues and hints, you have to experience it!
I have never meant a person so thoroughly descriptive with words, she can correctly position you and is extremely in tune with where you are! I highly recommend her!

Gain a different perspective

Astrid has been a fantastic, helpful and understanding coach for me during some of my more difficult times. Her method, which incorporates comprehensive breathwork techniques and a lot of inward-looking reflection, has lifted me (and indeed stuck with me), enabling me to gain a different perspective of my life, seeing positive changes one step at a time. Thank you, Astrid!

Felt empowered and safe!

I met Astrid over 2 years ago as yoga teacher. From the first class I felt empowered and truly brought into a safe and zen space that interlinked affirmations and using breath flow to centre myself at the beginning of each class. The manner in which she teaches is genuine, fun and of the highest professionalism. Her knowledge of how our bodies work physiologically is vast and her ability to sense a room with other class members yet still communicate personalised is unique. Her work really made a difference to my well being on the outside and inside – I felt more rested, strong and balanced in every day life. I highly recommend Astrid for her outstanding knowledge and empathy in which she lives her passion to support others live their best life, and the many years of her work experience with people from all walks of life, really shines through.

Felt empowered and safe!
